Coffee At Birkdale

Car of the Day:

2007 – Present Cadillac Escalade ESV

Character of the Day:

Adam – Musician, Teacher, & Adventurer

Originally, I was introduced to Adam through Seth (Day 128), it was a brief introduction that consisted nothing more than a “Hello”. Today I enjoyed a 2 hour conversation with Adam. He was born in Charlotte and raised in California. He moved to back to NC two years ago and is getting ready to finish getting his music degree. Currently his better half still lives on the west coast with plans in place for her to transfer to UNCC to finish her degree. She’s getting her degree in Event Planning which complements Adam’s business. He is a musician and music teacher that can play strings and percussion instruments easily. He has to work a little harder on the keyboard. Not only is Adam musically inclined he’s also athletic which seems to be the norm for the Seth/Adam family tree. Where Seth prefers the waves and surfing, Adam likes it a bit colder in the snow with his board. Since music is more of a passion it’s movies that fall under his hobby category. Most of the conversation was focused on our religious views (which tends to happen at this particular Starbucks). It was an enlightening conversation. On a side note, we all know the three taboos in social conversation… religion, politics, and taxes. I’ve noticed in Birkdale these topics can be addressed without worry of an argument ensuing. There have been exceptions to the rule though… Our conversation today was enjoyable which was obvious by the length. His favorite thing about Birkdale… “the interesting people and conversations that never cease to take place”.
